REMOVING THE LINE FUSE & FUSEHOLDER, THE HIGH
VOLTAGE RECTIFIER, & HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Replace all panels before operating.
Failure to do so could result in death or
electrical shock.
CAUTION: When you work on the microwave
oven, be careful when handling the sheet metal
parts. Sharp edges may be present, and you
can cut yourself if you are not careful.

microwave oven.
2. Remove the microwave oven from the
oven cabinet (see pages 2-8 & 2-9 for the
procedure).
3. Remove the right side panel (see step 2b

CAUTION: Discharge the high voltage ca-
pacitor terminals with a 20,000
chassis ground.
The microwave oven components described
on these pages are shown below.
